What did you use, S/c install
Re-installing my vortech ysi supercharger bracket. I know the instructions don't call for anything but did YOU use any locktite or anti seize on the bracket bolts?

I did not use locktite except where the instructions said to (crank pulley, blower pulley and anywhere else I forgot to mention). I did use antiseize on the bolts that go into the head.
The rest of them I just tightened down. It won't hurt to use blue (medium strength) anywhere you see fit. |

I was just surprised that it didn't say to on the bracket bolts, specially when you're mixing metals like that.

I didn't do the ORIGINAL install on my setup, but recently I had to take the blower off which means I had to take all the bracketry off. There was no lock-tite on those bolts and I didn't use any when reinstalling. I just tightened down and went about a 1/4 turn after that.

I don't like thread lockers. I use them almost never. Proper torque.
